Its been nearly 10 days, that I added in Google Friend Connect when I first received an email from Google about the new Google Friend Connect(GFC) Beta launched. After added in for 10 days, my Google Friend Connect only have 1 member . But I am sure that time will cure my worries. Beside not having more member join in or sign in on my GFC, but on the bright side, I notice there are traffic coming from GFC, and its about nearly 100+ unique per day, and increasing too. At least something is good about GFC even though I only have 1 member on it now.

What is Google Friend Connect?
GFC started nearly few months ago(somewhere in June, and just started using it this month), and have be improved enormously within the beta period. If you have one of this account like Google, Yahoo and OpenID, you can just sign-in or join in, grab the code onto your website, and start connecting with others using the same GFC. GFC means more people engaging more deeply with your website and with each other, very similar to others social network available today. 3 of many reason of using GFC, enrich your site, attract more visitors gaining quality traffic, and best part is no programming whatsoever, all you need to do is copy the code given from your GFC account, and paste it anywhere which is noticeable on your website(my one I think it is not so noticeable).

Rules
Anyone can join your site with one click by using their existing Google, Yahoo and other accounts, provided you have follow the policy, terms and condition.

Up to till today, traffic from GFC is nearly about 1k+ now from the day I started embeded the code on my earning blogs.

If you haven’t join in, head to the Google Friend Connect, and start using the service. You might be interested to read others whom website also using it and have some good comment about GFC, and how well they been using it, so you have Google Friend Connect, now what?.
